[BCMA] conservation building design for large equipment restoration

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

We are undertaking a capital project to erect a building on our property 
that would serve as a year-round place to restore full-size rolling stock. 
The conservation of these large artifacts will require a solid structure 
with room for equipment, working space, storage, and perhaps a space from 
where the public may safely observe the work being done.  We think that we 
have room for a building that could house enough track for one car to be 
worked on at a time with doors that open front and back so that movement of 
the rolling stock would be easier.

In exploring the design of a building like this one, we thought we would see 
if there are any similar structures that have been erected fairly recently 
and if it would be possible to have a look at the designs.  In seeking 
funding for this project it is in our best interest to keep design costs 
down as they can be very high when we will also have to seek funding for the 
construction itself.

Any asssistance would be helpful,
Thanks
Jennifer
